U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly invalidated part of President Bush's 2001 executive order, which allowed former presidents and vice presidents to review executive records before they are released under the Freedom of Information Act.
Bush did this because Reagan's records were to be released, and his dad's prints would have been all over Iran-Contra.
It might also show evidence of Poppy Bush negotiating with the Iranians in 1980 to keep the hostages locked up to win the election, but I don't think that Bush pere would be stupid enough to let George, Jr. know about that.
Historians should be seeing some interesting stuff.
